Product Summary
"BCL - Lumina Skin Glow Serum Mask" is effective for: Moisturizing
This product could be helpful for: Anti-aging, but its actives are not the most effective or are not well-studied.
Ingredient callouts
- Ceramides (phytosphingosine 0.01% - 0.10%, ceramide ns 0.05% - 0.20%, ceramide np 0.05% - 0.20%, ceramide eop 0.05% - 0.20%, ceramide as 0.05% - 0.20% and ceramide ap 0.10% - 0.35%). Ceramides are a type of lipids that our skin produces itself. They are a building block of the skin's barrier. Ceramides used in skincare are synthetic or extracted from plants. They work well for softening the skin surface and "patch holes" in the skin's barrier.
- In addition, this product contains Allantoin (1.00% - 1.50%). Allantoin is helpful in wound-healing and can help restore the skin barrier faster. It might also be able to improve scars, but the evidence is not very strong for this.
- Humectants (histidine 0.01% - 0.05%, glycerin 0.01% - 0.10%, glyceryl acrylate/acrylic acid copolymer 0.01% - 0.05%, hydrolyzed hyaluronic acid 0.01% - 0.05%, glycine 0.55% - 1.30%, xylitylglucoside 1.00% - 1.50%, arginine 0.90% - 1.35%, allantoin 1.00% - 1.50%, alanine 1.50% - 2.30% and glycerin 2.60% - 4.00%). These ingredients help attract water to the upper layer of the skin and improve the skin hydration.

Moisturizing
What does the product description say?
Moisture penetrates deep into the stratum corneum of the skin, leading to radiant and glossy skin that glows from the inside.

This product can help improve hydration of the skin with the two types of ingredients.
The first type is called “humectants”:
these ingredients help attract water.
When humectants are on the surface of the skin, they “pull in” the moisture from the outside environment, or from
within deeper layers of the skin. The following ingredients in this product do the job:
alanine, allantoin.
This product also contains ingredients called “occlusives”. They help reduce the speed with which our skin loses moisture to the outside environment. These ingredients also help soften the upper layer of the skin, so it feels less tight and nicer to the touch. The following ingredients in this product do the job: arginine, cetearyl alcohol.
The following ingredients in this product are especially good for supporting the skin barrier and helping with the hydration level: ceramide ap, ceramide as, ceramide eop, ceramide ns
